While the campaign does recognize that parents play an important role in their children’s food choices, it avoids the tired “blame the mother” and “personal responsibility” refrains so often associated with the issue of childhood obesity. It also focuses on education as key for parents and children to be able to make these healthy choices. Healthy eating may seem like it should be self explanatory, but as many authors have detailed (Dr. David Kessler, Michael Pollan, and Marion Nestle to name a few) the loss of cultural food traditions coupled with a food industry intent to sell and an ever changing FDA food pyramid have made many Americans unsure of what they should be eating. The “Smart Choices” labeling campaign is a good example of why. Nestle has written at length about the issue on her blog Food Politics.
